Strengthening and Upholding the Performances of the new Engineered Research PANELS (SUPERPANELS)

Start date: Aug 1, 2010, End date: Jul 31, 2013,

A great effort has been spent in the mechanical engineering fields in order to conceive new panels of improved static and dynamic performances. This was due to the search of innovative design solutions specifically tailored for facing with the problem of transportation engineering where the vehicle requires high stiffness, low weight, low noise, low cost design. The project will allow the co-opera ...

Community Oriented Solutions to Minimise aircraft noise Annoyance (COSMA)

Start date: Jun 1, 2009, End date: Mar 31, 2013,

"COSMA aims to develop engineering criteria for aircraft design and operations in order to reduce the annoyance within airport communities due to aircraft exterior noise. By today, such criteria do not exist since aircraft noise engineering has historically focused on achieving ever lower noise levels for individual events and at close distance from the runway. Within the frame of a unique approac ...

EXTreme ICing Environement (EXTICE)

Start date: Jun 1, 2008, End date: May 31, 2012,

"More recent aircraft incidents and accidents have highlighted the existence of icing cloud characteristics beyond the actual certification envelope defined by the JAR/FAR Appendix C, which accounts for an icing envelope characterized by water droplet diameters up to 50 μm (so-called cloud droplet). The main concern is the presence of super-cooled large droplets (SLD) such as freezing drizzle, in ...

Innovative propellants in hybrid propulsion technology and its applications in space transportation (ORPHEE)

Start date: Jan 1, 2009, End date: Dec 31, 2011,

"Nowadays, chemical propulsion is based on solid (launch applications like first stage booster) or liquid technologies (upper stage engines). Complementary, hybrid propulsion technology, as defined in ORPHEE (Operational Research Project on Hybrid Engine in Europe), appears as a new generation of advanced space transportation system. Engines based on this innovative propulsion concept provide adva ...
